Author's Note: I suggest refreshing yourself by reading the end of chapter 9/Ready To Go so it makes this twice as intense! xD Hope you like this one! I've gotten my muse back for writing this! Please R&R!

Run

Both Usagi and Seiya were stunned at the sight that was just seen—of Yaten and Minako.

Minako was almost naked with whipped cream spread all over herself with Yaten chasing her around while laughing. This whole situation was so unexpected and unbelievable, so Seiya and Usagi just stood in fear.

As soon as Yaten noticed what was going on, and saw the horror spread across both Seiya and Usagi's faces, he stopped in pure terror—like a dear in headlights.

At first, he could only say, "Wha…wha…", and then he looked around for something nearby to cover himself up. He was still too stunned to do anything about this situation, even too stunned to run away or move. "Bad-Boy! Where are you?" They all heard Minako's voice in a light hearted tone coming from the other room. A few seconds passed of the same awkward silence before they heard Minako's voice yet again, "Yaten! Why aren't you chasing m—" she walked into the room where Yaten, Usagi, and Seiya were in and stood in shock. "Oh… my…" Minako let out in a short shrieking sound. Both Yaten and Minako where stuttering while trying to start explaining themselves, until their embarrassment reached its peak. Both had stopped talking as soon as they saw Seiya and Usagi start to giggle, then watched as that slight giggle turned into a laugh that was strong enough to kill someone.

Both Yaten and Minako where beyond confused by now, they both thought that Seiya would be angry at Yaten because of their "rule", and Minako though that Usagi would be pissed at her because she didn't tell her about her thing with Yaten. But instead, it was the exact opposite. By now, Seiya and Usagi where crying and laying on the ground from laughing so much, and this offended Yaten greatly. "Hey! What's so funny! Huh?" Yaten called out in anger as he walked toward Seiya, who was now clutching his stomach on the ground. Seiya stood up slowly and tried to keep himself from laughing, "Shut up, 'Bad-Boy'", Seiya couldn't contain his amusement, and so he busted out laughing once more. From everything that had just happened, Usagi could hardly breathe—this was exactly what she needed to make her feel better about Makoto leaving.

After everything had settled down, and Usagi could finally breathe again, Yaten decided to explain the dynamics of the situation to Seiya and to Usagi. "It's not what it looks like…" He started off sternly with a serious look, "wait… it is exactly what it looks like…" he said correcting himself while gazing down realizing that this would be harder to explain that he had thought. Seiya was still trying to figure out why Yaten would be so unsure of himself when his thought was cut off by Minako speaking up. "Look, I like him, he likes me. We both like each other. But, Yaten doesn't want everyone to know yet." Her voice was very sure and not quivering like it was expected to be. "Yeah" Yaten added with an absolute expression and tone. Seiya started to laugh a bit again before saying, "So basically, you guys are fuck buddies…" And without hesitation, Minako said, "Yes. But, don't tell anyone. It could be bad for my reputation."

'Like it isn't bad enough…' went through Usagi's head.

"That was…" Usagi started to say before her voice trailed off

"Weird?" He said laughing a bit

She opened up the car door, and said, "Yeah" while rolling her eyes.

"So, where too now…?"

"Let's just go to my house. I have food there, and we can watch another movie if you'd like…"

"Okay then," Seiya said, "It's decided." They then sped off into the distance.

"Well," Usagi said as she opened up the door with her key, "Here we are" then proceeded to walk into the empty, quiet home. As she walked to turn on the lights, then bent down to pet Luna, she asked Seiya if he wanted anything to drink. "No thanks" he politely responded while making himself at home on her couch.

"Seiya?" He heard his name coming from the other room, but she spoke it in a very worrying tone—he was a little scared of what would happen next. "…Yeah…?" He said nervously. "We need to talk…" She said as she walked back into the room softly. This was exactly what he was afraid of. He knew that Usagi didn't like all the attention that they were getting; he could tell that all of this made her uncomfortable. 'I've lost her already?' He desperately thought to himself.

She sat next to him, "So, I've been thinking lately," came from her soft lips as she gently placed her hand on his lap. "I…" continued from her mouth.

His face flushed with worry, 'This is it' he thought to himself. He could feel the pain running though his veins, rushing throughout his body, stabbing into his heart. He knew he was sensitive, but he never felt like this with a girl before. He was a hot-shot pop-star that everybody liked, everybody knew. But, she, she was different. She made his world seem brighter, everything was happier. Her smile made his heart flutter and her laugh nearly makes his knees grow weak.

"I feel like I know you, but I don't at the same time…" she finally said, relieving him from his worry and anxiety. He took a deep breath in, breathing all his tension away.

But, he was still a little confused. "…What do you mean?"

"I mean…" she looked around, almost like she was looking for the right words to say. "I mean that I think we need to just talk about ourselves. We haven't really gotten to know each other yet and I think if we don't, we will rush into things that might ruin all of this!" she let out a deep breath, she spoke too quickly to make sure she said everything, and not to stop herself.

Seiya started to laugh a little, "We can do that… anything you need, Princess, I'll give to you…"

Now, it was her turn. She couldn't speak. That tone, the way he said that word… 'Princess… I've heard that before…' He grabbed her hands as he noticed her face in confusion. 'Princess… where was it that I hea-' As soon as she felt his touch, it came to her. It blew through her skin like a gust of cold wind blows though a high mountain top. 'That dream…' That is exactly what came to mind. A flashback of the dream where she was falling terrified though the dark, and suddenly being saved by a voice that was soothing, calling her Princess. 'It's not his voice though…'

"Usagi?" He said yet again as he grasped her hand tightly.

She didn't notice him at first, "Huh?"

"You seemed like you snapped out of it for a while… Did I say something wrong?" Concern was filled within his eyes, while love lied on his lips.

"No… Nothing, in fact, you said just the right thing…"

She was lying in bed, thinking—dreaming. Luna was sitting at the edge of her white, fluffy bead spread staring intently at her. She wasn't cold one bit, even though she only had on a t-shirt and some shorts ready for bed.

'That was a really nice conversation…' She thought to herself as she started to pull a blanket over her. 'He is just so kind and sweet… I can't believe he was actually willing to tell me everything…' She reached over to turn off her side lamp that was emitting a dim orange light across the room then closed her eyes for a second dreaming about his eyes. 'I can't believe we have the same birthday… next week is going to be fun… I just hope Minako isn't planning a surprise birthday party like she does every year… I don't want to show Seiya my drunken side…' She giggled at herself at the thought of that. She was a silly, happy, dance-on-the-table kind of drunk. She could feel Luna step on her stomach, and it made her open her eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" She said directly at Luna who stared at her intently.

It was creepy to Usagi, but in Usagi's mind, Luna was just a cat. "Whatever. You're so weird sometimes, Luna…" Usagi turned on her side, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

'Whatever you do, Princess, say yes.' It was the voice again within her dreams. 'You mustn't ruin destiny…'

She could feel herself falling and falling, slowly though, as time seemed to stand still. Clocks surrounded her, enchanting her. She couldn't' speak or scream for the calming voice to come back—it was too late. She gently floated down to a meadow of what seemed to be cherry blossoms.

'What...?' She looked down at her feet. They were bare. She hadn't even noticed her change in clothing though, the view off into the distance was too captivating.

She felt the need to rush toward it—she sensed a strong power coming from it.

'I…I've been here before…' she though as the sound of crunching flowers came from underneath her running feet. 'I've just got to get there. I just need to see who—' She suddenly tripped, falling into yet another abyss of darkness.
